Kent in the south of England is often referred to as the Garden on England due to the large number of fruit, flowers and vegetables grown here. It also has an abundance of hop fields. Kent has more historic houses than any other county. Kent is home to most of the major ports, and also the Channel Tunnel. Maidstone is the county town and the River Medway runs through the centre of the town.
Canterbury lies on the River Stour. The cathedral is the oldest in England. The city became the first to have an Archbishop. Thomas Becket's murder in the cathedral in 1170 let to it becoming a place of pilgrimage and provided the theme for the Canterbury Tales. Many historical structures remain including the city wall, founded in Roman times, and the oldest school in England, The King's School. There is a Roman museum which houses a mosaic pavement dating back to the Romans.
Herne Bay has beautiful beaches and Victorian architecture. Brightly coloured beach huts are a famous feature of the town. Folkestone has the only sandy beach and coastal park within an hour of London. Charles Dickens wrote of Folkestone, that it was delightful and the air, delicious.
Dover is a major town and ferry port to Calais. It faces France across the narrowest part of the English Channel. The surrounding chalk cliffs have become known as the White Cliffs of Dover. The Cliff spreads east and west from the town. The white line of cliffs are the first and last sight of the UK for travellers.
The Isle of Sheppey is an island off the north coast of Kent in the Thames Estuary. The word Sheppey is derived from the Saxon word meaning Isle of Sheep, and today a large proportion of the island is given to flocks of grazing sheep.
